"My name is Jeremy Corbyn, and my pronouns are he/him"

Labour's going to lose the next election.

And the Tories, as I do keep saying, are led by a libertarian deregulator in Boris Johnson, who will see absolutely no problem in legislating in favour of bourgeois male sexual rights - which is what queer theoretical extremist genderism is.

Our only hope is public opinion. Without a critical mass of loud public opinion against this, we're fucked.

No fool like an old fool.

This however -

“I recently went to the science museum in Boston and every speaker and demonstrator did this”

absolutely terrifies me.

It's not just the ridiculous ideology that pisses me off. It's the wankery of saying "my pronouns are..." They're not yours! You can say the pronouns you use are "I" and "me" and you can say the pronouns you would prefer other use to refer to you are "she" and "her," but beyond that...
That annoying Nish guy on the Mash Report was saying that Sam Smith's pronouns are no one else's business but his, but if you're giving other people third person pronouns to describe you, obviously that makes it their business.

Ffs. I’m definitely a socialist labour supporter and had high hopes when Corbyn originally became leader but this is bollocks. Who can I vote for? I want a left wing party that recognised biological reality without perpetuating sexist stereotypes. Is that too much to ask for?

Pathetic, pathetic, pathetic. There is nothing sadder than a grown-up pandering to something they don’t believe in because they think it’s cool, or “politically correct“. (Never have I used that phrase before, but it’s spot on here.)
He knows this is ridiculous but he doesn’t have the backbone.
Just a weak idiot.

Yeah we all know the leader of the Labour Party is a man

The Labour Party has never had a leader who is a woman

This is very true.

It's all well and good the TRAs trying to pretend we're just a handful of right-wing women with a load of sock accounts, but it ignores the fact that there's a lot of women unwilling to vote Labour at the moment.

I can't vote Tory. Not because of Boris, not even because of the Brexit shitshow but because of the last 10 years of Tory government. George Osbourne's smug face. The renaming of things to make it look like they were doing something (minimum wage, free education for pre-schoolers). IDS cheering universal credit. UC only seems less fucked up because we have Brexit to compare it to and because no-one actually gives a shit about the people suffering because of it. Even the Labour party only care about UC as a stick to beat the Tories with.

But yeah, dismiss us as right-wing bigots. That'll get Labour elected...

We'll I'm glad he cleared that up, it's been a mystery until now.

I told my son who is on the Autistic spectrum. He didn't stop giggling for 5 minutes because he thought it must be a joke that an old man with a beard would be called anything other than he.

So, um, yeah. Down with the kids, Jezza. Pfft.

This would only not be patronising and tokenistic virtue signalling, if Corbyn started every speech with his own pronouns. But course he fucking doesn’t! Because that would be farcical.

Corbyn does not have dysphoria and doesn’t care how he is addressed, nobody GAF what his pronouns are.

Even if I had gender dysphoria I am fairly sure I would rather that the powerful grown-ups who felt fine, were busy trying to use their efforts to get me some decent support.... not posturing on a podium offering up their pronouns.

I’ll assume everybody in the audience laughed when he said that because obviously it’s funny- everyone already knows his pronouns. We still all know as a society who is really a man or woman, the rest is about fear, politeness and misguided indulgent ‘kindness’ or ‘sensitivity’, performed by people who are happy to give away the rights of others for fear of being chastised, put into the out-group, or doing it for pleasure of the little warm glow of getting approval from the in-group, when they publicly perform the pronoun article of faith in front of the right audience. It’s that kind of in-group grooming, tribal behaviour that is right up Corbyn’s street. Creepy.

On the upside, the more that the actual grown ups who have no skin in this game start doing this nonsense publicly, it will become uncool very quickly. That will help to put off the proportion of youngsters who are only dabbling and attention seeking, which can only be a good thing for them.

So on balance I hope this catches on.

He must be terrified of actually getting elected.

Jeremy seems utterly determined to lose the next election.

What an utter tool.

Pink News: We hate women!
Labour Party: Us too!!
Corbyn: Country is basically on fire but pronouns important!!
Woke bros and co: Amazing, so brave and supportive,

Women: Arrrrggggghhhhhhh 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

To paraphrase the excellent Dr Jessica Eaton; for Goddess’ SAKE Jeremy you utter melt

Yeah we all know the leader of the Labour Party is a man

The Labour Party has never had a leader who is a woman

Reading the #PinkNewsAwards hashtag and seeing all the "great and good" - Bercow, Mordaunt, Abbot, Johnson praising it all to the rafters, and knowing the shit, women-hating, inaccurate 'journalism' that that organisation pumps out has made me think, yet again, that we're fucked. Sorry.

Why’s he never done this in PM Question Time? Does he only do this when he knows the audience will lap it up?

What a prat

Arse and hole would be more accurate.

Jeremy, we all know that the leader of the Labour Party is male.

Anyone got any ideas on what left-wing feminists can vote next time?

Genuinely had no idea that a bearded person with a low pitched voice, a male looking body, who wears suits and is in charge of the Labour Party would need male pronouns

Thanks Jeremy.

Ya fud.

This pisses me off so much. women in the LP and potential voters are not going to see this as a massive 'fuck off'. I am a LP member and although our constituency MP is beyond brilliant, I'm going to struggle to vote labour. So damn frustrating. This is absolutely pathetic.

Owen Jones and Jeremy Corbyn and all the prick news misogynists wanking over a biscuit.

Love this comment: “It’s the adjectives I’m worried about”

I say that at least once a week these days @VinandVigour

But where do we go?
